Russian metro announcements

Today we have a regular dictation where you can practice your listening and writing skills. This dictation is designed for intermediate level and includes some versions of announcements which you can hear in the Russian metro.

As always, the audio recording is read at three different speeds: normal, slow and adapted (slower than normal).

Try to recognize the text by ear and to write it down. Check your work and analyze the mistakes with the transcript of the dictation.
